Chapter 1233: Chapter 923, The Raven Cries Bombs

The convoy of the Fire God Furnace headed towards the designated location.

As they drove further, the street and the buildings on both sides began to look dilapidated, with collapsed walls and ruins everywhere.

It seemed like the battle in this area was very intense during the cleanup.

Modern cities are densely populated, making it indeed difficult to conquer a region.

Even for someone like Wu Heng, battles between the Skeleton Army and zombies at close quarters end with devastation.

Especially when the Skeleton Flying Dragon dropped Lazy Dog Bombs from the sky, leaving the ground full of scars.

Inside the armored vehicle where Wu Heng was sitting, Skull Shanshan and Tiao Tiao sat on either side of him, while the other three were from the Fire God Furnace.

One was a representative who had attended the Dawn Conference, another was the base’s Vice Leader, and the third was a translator.

Perhaps it was to prevent Wu Heng from thinking there was any conspiracy.

So they arranged a Vice Leader within the team.

About 40 years old, with short hair and thick eyebrows, he had a very typical Russian appearance, wearing combat clothing, with camouflage pants and high boots.

“Leader Wu Heng, we’ve seriously discussed the matter of the power station at our base. We consider it a very new technology, and I feel that both of our bases could develop and explore it together,” the Vice Leader said directly.

Wu Heng did not expect the other party to bring up this topic first.

After the translator translated, Wu Heng said, “I’ve also discussed this matter with the technical personnel at the base; they believe this technology exceeds the scope of modern science, with no possibility for further research and development.”

“How could that be? Any technology can be further developed,” said the Vice Leader with a frown.

Wu Heng’s tone was serious, “Times have changed; we must accept new things.”

Indeed, there is no possibility for further research and development.

The power station is still an old-fashioned one, the only difference being the Flame Furnace.

It’s an Array Pattern building, a product of the Magic World.

The other side fell into silence, and a few seconds later, the representative said, “Leader Wu, but you proposed the technical support and training.”

“Indeed, I brought it up,” Wu Heng glanced at the people opposite him and said, “I’ll show you then, and you’ll understand.”

The Vice Leader raised an eyebrow, “Alright, please give us a tour then. If it’s truly difficult, we will discuss it again.”

Wu Heng nodded and steered the conversation to the matter at hand.

He asked, “Tell me about the ghost situation. Besides the ghost you’ve mentioned, is there anything else dangerous?”

Speaking was still the middle-aged Vice Leader, with a deep, serious voice, “The target is a semi-transparent energy body, presumably the ghost. Its attack method is to control people’s bodies to cause harm, incapable of communication, and can’t understand any language or written interaction, like a wild beast.

“We’ve sent in three teams before, but none of the methods have solved it, and all the teams were lost inside.”

“Just one?” Wu Heng asked.

“The ghost is just one, but there should be some zombies inside,” the Vice Leader took out a tablet, opened the map, and said, “Our plan is for the convoy to camp here, make noise to lure the zombies out, and you enter from the side entrance to deal with the ghost alone.”

Wu Heng glanced at the map the other party held, a top-down satellite map, “What about the number of zombies?”

“There could be a few hundred remaining.”

“Did the previous teams directly bypass the zombies to go in?” Wu Heng asked again with a frown.

The other party said, “We avoided some conflicts and went directly.”

Wu Heng raised an eyebrow and glanced at the other party.

In other words, the other side had sent three teams to the designated location in this building, all killed by the ghost.

They had a clear purpose, looking for something, rather than trying to occupy this factory area.

Wu Heng didn’t ask further and said directly, “There’s no need for you to lure the zombies. I’ll go in by myself.”

“Are you sure?” the other party squinted slightly.

“I wouldn’t joke about my own life,” Wu Heng said seriously.

“Understood. Should anything arise, I’ll immediately have the team rush in to rescue you, no matter what.”

“Alright!”

…

The convoy traveled for another approximately 4 hours.

The walkie-talkie transmitted news that they had arrived at the target location.

The convoy began to be on alert, with some troops starting to set up defenses around.

By this time, the sky had already darkened.

It was winter, and nightfall came early.

After arranging the team, the Vice Leader saw Wu Heng directly heading towards the distant buildings.

The crowd behind also looked on in surprise at this scene.

The reinforcements invited by the base are this formidable?

He just walked in by himself?

…

Approaching the building entrance.

Bella flew back from the opposite side, “We found the ghost, and Lady Glenda has trapped it, allowing you to go right in.”

So fast.

Wu Heng asked while walking, “What level?”

“Level 7, it probably killed quite a few people or the environment here is very suitable for a ghost to survive,” Bella said directly.

Piao floated beside, “It’s already Level 7, and still can’t communicate?”

“No way to communicate; it’s just an ordinary ghost,” Bella replied.

Wu Heng continued to ask, “Are there any other dangers inside?”

“There’s a Level 12 Crawler, and the rest are just some regular zombies, numbering about a hundred,” Bella continued to answer.

“Let’s go, the sooner we finish, the sooner we get home,” Wu Heng said, picking up his pace into the building with the skeletons.

Inside the abandoned base, the flowerbeds were filled with half-human-tall withered weeds, with scrapped vehicles visible everywhere.
